Youth Ministry
Confirmation
In confirmation classes, we discuss what it means to be a person of faith. Participants learn more about Jesus' life and how it impacts our lives today. Topics include: The Trinity, Sacraments, other religions, Music & Worship, Grace & Gratitude, Stewardship, and more. During classes we wrestle with questions such as: What does God want for us? How can my life make a difference? How do faith and science relate to one another? For the final project, each student creates their own personal statement of faith.
2025 confirmation classes will begin in January. Classes are designed for high school students and are open to anyone in the community, not just church members. If you are interested in learning more, contact Pastor Jon. Registration will open in the summer.
Youth Group focuses on deepening the faith of its members. Through service, worship, fellowship, and scholarship, youth are prepared to take the next step in their journey of faith.
Youth Group is for youth in grades 6-12. Don't forget to bring a friend!
